Man wanted in fight, hit-and-run in Anaheim

ANAHEIM A man was being sought Wednesday in connection with a fight and hit-and-run crash in the Garden Walk parking structure that left one man injured, police said.

Shortly before 2 a.m., police received calls regarding a fight involving about 20 people in the structure in the 300 block of West Katella Avenue, police Sgt. Bob Dunn said. Witnesses told officers a man in the fight noticed someone driving away in his BMW sedan. The man alerted his friends, and one of them was struck by the vehicle as he chased it.

The victim suffered facial injuries and was taken to a hospital, Dunn said, adding that he was expected to recover. The man in the vehicle fled on foot before police arrived.

The initial investigation showed that the victim and his friends had been at the Heat Ultra Lounge before the fight broke out, but it was unclear what led to the fight, Dunn said.

No arrests have been made. Authorities are asking anyone with information to call Orange County Crime Stoppers at 855-TIP-OCCS.
